Check out this stunning acoustic worship song. Pat Barrett - Better Hands.

Pat begins singing about how in his own strength, he falls short of God’s glory, but the Lord helps. The chorus is a wonderful reminder that we are fully dependent on the sovereignty of God. He is in control and worthy of our trust. 

Pat reminds us that whatever we are going through and however we are trying to forge our own paths, the Lord has His best and knows what He is doing even when we do not understand. 

We all have situations (or have had them before) where we do not comprehend the will of the Lord, but He sees us and knows better. When we think about taking our lives into our own hands, it’s easy to desire control. However, when we live open-handedly in surrender, it is a great place to be. 

This worship song reminds us that Christ has better hands for us, and we are beautifully dependent on Him. He is trustworthy, and we are safe to fully rely on Him.

The bridge declares that God loves us more than anyone else. He sings out that he will not fear because the Lord is holding him. It is very easy to sing along and worship with Pat. He has such a spectacular voice. It is very singable, like a modern-day Chris Tomlin. I love how Pat is just praising the Lord in his jacket and ball cap.

The chorus sings:

This is in better hands
This is a better plan
This is in better hands than my own

Whatever we are going through, whatever we do not understand, we can trust in the faithful provisions of our Sovereign Lord. May this song minister to our hearts today. 

“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” Isaiah 41:10
